Spyder Shades Review

Do you know that shades or sunglasses are important part of everyone’s summer outfit. Glad I had new shades courtesy of Spyder Philippines, just in time for my endless summer escapes.

So thanks to Team Spyder, I got the Spyder Air Elite and Spyder Mavic. Let me have a short review of the 2 sunglasses.

Spyder Air Elite

The Air Elite model is for sporty and outdoor people- those who are always on the go. I’ve been wearing it during my runs and beach escapades and I really love the product.

What I Like aboour Air Elite?

–Very light (almost weightless). It doesn’t bother me while running even if I get faster

–Interchangeable lenses. I love the blue and white combination and of course I use the brown lenses during late afternoons or even at night while on low lighting roads. Plus its polycarbonated which makes it almost crash-proof without losing its flexibility.

-White-framed. I don’t know but I think white-frame sunglasses has that added astig effect when used in sporting activity. It makes my face stand out among the crowd. Naks!

–All-weather condition. Whether in direct heat of the sun, foggy condition or rainy season I can trust that it will continue to give me good vision. Indeed, its for Elite athletes who want to have an edge on their game.

It’s just sad I lost that shades in El Nido during one of our island hopping trips. 🙁

Spyder Mavic

If the Air Elite is for sporty ones, this Mavic is more on the smart casual side. Party goers would love the shape of the shades too. I use this during client meetings in Manila or during my flights to look good even when I’m on my boardshorts and slippers. The shades make a big difference- “dagdag japorms.”

What I like about Mavic?

-Color. I like how it aids my sunkissed color- its brown compliments my skin tone.

-Smart Casual design. The shades’ framing just fits perfectly my face. My mom says I look great when I wear it with a polo shirt. haha

-Doesn’t break easily. I accidentally dropped it twice and it didn’t break. Once I just placed it inside my backpack without its case and it stood the pressure. Must be the polycarbon?

-Sleek and sexy. Do I have to explain this?
